Nek level steering wheel lock, saw this in Naples, Italy. Gosh what a shit hole lol... I suggest for anyone considering on visiting not to stay there, if you're going to the beautiful islands just go direct, don't waste your time in Naples (however the pizzas are so cheap it makes no sense, a double scoop of gelato cost more).

I'm back in Australia, didn't get deported or stopped at boarder security!

Needed high heat for this dish and the induction stove top just won't cut it. Used a butane camping stove (with the holes drilled out), and I'm sure now the R33 is covered in oil splatter but at least it smells good.

Prev owner was into Auto Salon, hence the car is purple and he used a hammer to roll the guards (the car had wanky 19s on it) he didn't reseal the cracked paint and rust took over. Then when I needed to fit the 18x9.5 +22 with 255 wide semis, I went to town with a guard roller and destroyed both guards.

Also going to reshell next year so don't care :)

 

Hasn't moved in 2 months, just gets started, rev it a few times. Once it's warm, I commence a few anti-lag hits to spool the turbo and it gets turned off.

Did one ages before but on shitty tyres, I fear trying in such a small space with semis might propel the car into the Tiguan lol

Rest it up against the tiguan. Then skid.

PowerFC delete, Nistune install, upgrade to Z32 street tuna. Ready for dyno in a few weeks, runs an Auto Salon special Garrett GT2871 from the 90s and Tomei Procams.

Owner wants it on 98RON only, should see 230kW to 240kW on crap all timing to preserve the motor.

Who's keen on buying the car as-is? I cbf, I can tune it before it goes too if the price is right.

OR is anyone keen on the car minus the motor, electronics (ecu, wiring, sensors) and fuel system? I'll leave the rest in (MCAs, KAAZ diff, all the suspension shit,  Bride seat, hectic ulleh stereo.

Clearly over it.

Straight up swap for a 335i F30 M-Sport with under 70k kms.

Getting that modern VW has changed me man, I didn't think it would affect me that much but it has.

The sheer lowdown torque, ridiculous gear shift speeds and luxuries has changed me for good.

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.
    • Can someone tell me if the cracks seen in the rear sway bar bushings in these photo's is unacceptable from a roadworthy point of view?  
    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
